Wiper inserts
So I went to the dealer closest to my work (Carr Subaru in Beaverton) and ordered wiper blades for my SVX (Just the rubber insert, not the whole blade) for $32 when the counter guy told me the total I about crapped myself (when I worked at Subaru the inserts were like $6 or something like that) and he tried to adjust the price but said his cost was like 10 bucks each... So I just paid the $32 since mine were falling apart and figured Subaru just jacked up the price...
Got back to work and looked up the part numbers on subarparts.com and found that 86548PA010 that has a list of $16.78 by the receipt, actually has a list of $9.50, as does 86548PPA000 which is shown as $15.60.... Oddly enough the rear wiper is SOA591U320R which is on the receipt as $5.95 and has an actual list of $4.95, which is what I was expecting to pay.... Guess I know where I WON'T be going next time I need blades!
